Hello,

Can anyone assit with this? Getting warning in syslog that UDP port 56616 is being blocked by ACL. I just tok a look and noticed that UDP port 56616 is reserved for private port. Anyone know what this could be as well as the source?

02-12-2007 00:10:30 Local4.Warning pix515.XXXXX.com %PIX-4-106023: Deny udp src outside:192.168.1.1 (XXX.XXXXX.com) /56616 dst inside:***DC2/514 by access-group "outside_access_in" [0x0, 0x0]

What matters here is the destination port.

This is port 514, used by syslog.

It seems as if a device on the outside perimeter is trying to write to your syslog server.

Regards,

Leo
